Looking for pro tips in State Line on how to maintain electrical appliances?

Taking good care of your valuable electrical appliances helps extend their useful life. Successful maintenance starts from the minute you bring the appliance home. Here are 10 tips.

1. Have an electrician in State Line add a dedicated outlet for large, power-hungry electrical appliances, like air conditioning. At the same time, consider a whole-house surge protector, which keeps electronics from being damaged by power surges.

2. Install and use electrical appliances according to the instruction manual provided. (If you misplace it, Google up a virtual version.)

3. Save on utility bills by plugging smaller electric appliances into a power strip, which is easy to switch off as required.

4. Keep electric cables organized. Avoid using extension cords for electrical heaters.

5. Beware of damaged plugs, frayed coverings on electrical wires, and burned or melted socket covers. These hazardous items can cause housefires or severe electric shock.

6. Avoid storing electrical appliances in cold or damp conditions.

7. Keep your appliances clean and in good shape for electrical safety, optimal performance, and reduced electricity consumption.

8. Always disconnect appliances from their power source before cleaning or inspection.

9. Remove dust regularly, with the help of a special brush or spray can of compressed air.

10. Clean screens on TVs, tablets, and PCs usinga lint-free cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol applied to (or specially prepared alcohol wipes). Avoid potentially damaging window cleaning sprays and paper towels. Do not apply liquids directly to your screen.
